ONE EXAMPLE of an 'Honour Killing';







Shafilea Ahmed, aged 16, had aspirations for a successful and promising life like her peers. However, her hopes were dashed when she vanished suddenly in 2003.


Shafilea Ahmed was born on July 14, 1986, in Bradford, West Yorkshire, to immigrant parents, Iftikhar and Farzana Ahmed, from Pakistan. Raised in Warrington, she was one of five siblings.

Her father worked as a taxi driver while her mother was a homemaker. Within the Asian community, her family enjoyed a respectable status, and Shafilea further contributed to their pride by excelling academically at the Great Sankey High School, consistently achieving straight A grades.

Shafilea aspired to become a lawyer, envisioning a future as an independent woman with control over her destiny. Well-liked at school, she was known among her peers for her willingness to assist others. However, in late 2003, Shafilea abruptly changed schools and ceased contact with all her friends.

Her disappearance in September 2003 came as a shock, with no sightings of her since September 11 after she had left work at a call center with her mother. School authorities alerted the police, and when questioned, Shafilea?s parents claimed that she had a history of running away from home, leading them to assume that this disappearance was another such instance.

In February 2004, during a period of heavy flooding in the River Kent in Cumbria, human remains were discovered. Among the items found with the body were a gold zigzag bracelet and a blue topaz ring, which Shafileas parents identified as hers. Although the body had significantly decomposed, dental fillings on the lower jaw were identified as Shafilea?s dental work by her dentist.

However, due to the advanced state of decomposition, the coroner?s report could only confirm that the body belonged to a young female, and the cause of death could not be determined.


Shafilea Ahmeds Sister Revealed the Identity of Her Killers

When the teachers at Great Sankey High School alerted the police about Shafilea?s disappearance, they provided valuable insights. They suspected that Shafilea?s parents, Iftikhar and Farzana Ahmed, might have been involved. They recounted instances when Shafilea had appeared with bruises on her body and confided in her friends about her fear of her parents.

Her friends alleged that her family held conservative views and disapproved of Shafilea wearing modern clothes, talking to boys, or engaging in any activities they didnt approve of. Shafileas friends provided the police with detailed accounts of her troubled relationship with her parents.

They revealed instances where Shafilea had shown up to school with bruises and confided in them about her fear of her parents.
Additionally, they disclosed that Shafilea had attempted to run away from home multiple times, particularly when her parents pressured her into an arranged marriage at the end of 2002. During one such attempt, Shafilea stayed away for two weeks, seeking refuge with friends.

When her father came to school to retrieve her, she appeared visibly frightened. Despite this, her father apologized and promised not to disrupt her studies, convincing her to return home.

The police investigation revealed that Shafileas parents had not kept their promise and had arranged for her to be married in Pakistan. It is suspected that Shafilea may have been drugged during the trip to rural Pakistan in February 2002, and she became desperate to escape the situation.

In a desperate attempt to prevent the marriage, Shafilea consumed bleach, causing harm to herself. The marriage was subsequently called off, and she was brought back to Warrington for medical treatment.

After Shafileas suicide attempt, her parents remained by her side at the hospital, which experts suggest was to prevent her from divulging the truth about what had occurred. They informed hospital authorities that Shafilea had ingested bleach accidentally, perhaps to control the narrative. Once back home, Shafilea was transferred to a different school, isolated from her friends, and eventually vanished.

Although the police arrested her parents, Iftikhar and Farzana, the investigation was later taken over by CPS.. Crown Protection Services and they found insufficient evidence to press charges against her parents.

After years of little progress, a significant breakthrough occurred for the police in August 2010. Shafileas younger sister, Alesha deliberately orchestrated a burglary at the home of their parents, Iftikhar and Farzana. Alesha was apprehended by the police following the burglary.

During questioning, She disclosed that her parents had murdered her sister Shafilea in front of all their siblings. She alleged that on the evening of September 11, 2003, when Shafiela was picked up from work by her mother, her parents accused her of wearing T shirts and talking to boys. It was Iftikar who had put a plastic over her mouth suffocated her and then took her body to dump it.
